COVANSYS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

      Covansys Corporation was founded in 1985. Covansys Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) is a global technology services company, with a focus on industry-specific solutions, strategic outsourcing and integration solutions. The Company addresses the most challenging technology issues companies are facing through a unique onsite, offsite, offshore delivery model that helps clients achieve rapid deployment and reduced costs. The Company offers high-level subject matter expertise in the public sector industry, as well as years of experience in retail, healthcare, distribution, manufacturing, financial services, telecommunications and utilities. The Company applies its industry-specific knowledge to deliver a wide range of outsourcing and integration services, including; application maintenance and development outsourcing (AMD/O); custom application development; e-business services; packaged software implementation, upgrades and enhancements; and other services.

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Covansys Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2003, the results of its operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

      The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2003.

2. Income Taxes

      The Company has provided federal, foreign and state income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the anticipated effective tax rate for fiscal years 2002 and 2003.

      Realization of deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s future deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income. On a quarterly basis, management assesses whether it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

      The Company has four business units in India which are entitled to a tax holiday for 10 consecutive years commencing with the year the business unit started producing computer software or until the Indian tax year ending March 31, 2009, whichever is earlier. Once the tax holiday period has expired, these business units are eligible to deduct a portion of the profits attributable to export activities. The deduction for export activities is currently 30% and will expire during the Indian tax year ended March 31, 2004. The tax holiday period for one of the business units has expired and this business unit is now subject to the deduction for export activities. The remaining business units are subject to the tax holiday for various periods ranging from March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2009 and will not be able to avail themselves of the deduction for export activities. As the tax holiday expires, the Company’s overall effective tax rate will be negatively impacted.

3. Common Stock Repurchase Program

      In October 2002, the Company’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, bringing the total authorization to 14,000,000 shares. Through June 30, 2003, the Company has repurchased approximately 11,182,000 shares of its common stock for cash, at a total cost of $139,551. During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, the Company repurchased 557,200 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $1,464. As of June 30, 2003, approximately 2,818,000 shares remain available for repurchase under the board of directors authorization.

4. Net (Loss) Per Share

      Basic and diluted net (loss) per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” by dividing the net (loss) available for common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. For the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, the effect of convertible redeemable preferred stock, stock options and warrants outstanding for the purchase of shares of common stock has not been used in the calculation of diluted net (loss) per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive. As such, the numerator and the denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net (loss) per share available for common shareholders are equal. The calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) per share for the three month and six month period ended June 30, 2002 excludes 8,695,652 of common stock equivalents related to the convertible redeemable preferred stock, 5,300,000 of warrants issued to CD&R, and 6,104,593 and 6,482,506 representing the average number of stock options outstanding for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively. The calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) per share for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 excludes 8,695,652 of common stock equivalents related to the convertible redeemable preferred stock, 5,300,000 of warrants issued to CD&R, and 3,025,898 and 3,058,252 representing the average number of stock options outstanding for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, respectively.

5. Stock Option Plans

      The Company has elected to account for stock options using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, no additional compensation expense has been recognized for our stock option plan within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Had compensation expense for our stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the Company’s pro forma net income (loss) available for common shareholders and pro forma basic and diluted net (loss) per common share would have been reduced to the amounts indicated below:

8. Restructuring, Merger and Other Related Charges

      The following is a roll forward of the accrual balance for Restructuring, Merger and Other Related charges for the six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 respectively.

      Amounts related to lease terminations will be paid out through 2006. Amounts related to severance will be paid through 2004.

9. Cost of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed

      SFAS No. 86 “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed” requires capitalized software development costs incurred subsequent to establishment of technological feasibility and prior to the availability of the product for general release to customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2003 the Company capitalized computer software of approximately $619. Amortization of capitalized costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers and is computed on a straight-line basis over each products estimated economic life — typically five years. Amortization costs were $227 and $591 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively and $556 and $1,181 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

10. Goodwill

      Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2003 is as follows:

11. Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

      In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. This statement requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of the commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement was effective for Covansys for any exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this statement will principally impact the ultimate timing of when activities are recorded as expense.

      In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34”. FIN 45 clarifies the requirements of FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, relating to the guarantor’s accounting for, and disclosure of, the issuance of certain types of guarantees. FIN 45 is effective January 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued a final consensus on Issue 00-21: Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. Issue 00-21 provides guidance on how and when to

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure”. This statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock based compensation. We have adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148.

      In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 provides guidance on the identification of, and financial reporting for, entities over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights, which are referred to as variable-interest entities (“VIEs”). FIN 46 is effective for Covansys for the year ending December 31, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 will not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. This statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS 133. The statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. The statement improves the accounting for certain financial instruments that, under previous guidance, issuers could account for as equity. The statement requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. This statement is effective for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

12. Subsequent Event

      In August, 2003, the Company was notified that the Board of Directors and majority shareholders of one of the Company’s investments carried at cost had agreed to merge with another entity. The merger is subject to certain conditions including the expiration of any waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. If consummated, the Company would be required to recognize a loss of approximately $.7 million based on anticipated proceeds. The merger is expected to close on August 31, 2003.

Table of Contents

      The following section should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes appearing in this Form 10-Q. With the exception of statements regarding historical matters and statements concerning our current status, certain matters discussed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” or “intend” and similar expressions. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such material differences include general economic conditions and conditions in the IT industry such as our failure to recruit and retain IT professionals, risks related to our merger, acquisition and strategic investment strategy, variability of our operating results, potential cost overruns on fixed-price projects, exposure to regulatory, political and economic conditions in India and Asia, competition in the IT services industry, short-term nature and termination provisions of contracts, economic conditions unique to clients in specific industries, and limited protection of intellectual property rights.

Overview

      We are a global technology services company, with a focus on industry-specific solutions, strategic outsourcing and integration solutions. We address the most challenging technology issues companies are facing through a unique onsite, offsite, offshore delivery model that helps clients achieve rapid deployment and reduced costs. We offer high-level subject matter expertise in the public sector industry, as well as years of experience in retail, healthcare, distribution, manufacturing, financial services, telecommunications and utilities. We apply our industry-specific knowledge to deliver a wide range of outsourcing and integration services, including; application maintenance and development outsourcing (AMD/O); custom application development; e-business services; packaged software implementation, upgrades and enhancements; and other services. Our strategy is to establish long-term client relationships and to secure additional engagements with existing clients by providing quality services and by being responsive to client needs. For each of the past five years, over 80% of our revenues were generated from existing clients from the previous fiscal year.

      We generally assume responsibility for project management and may bill the client on either a time-and-materials or fixed-price basis. We recognize revenues on time-and-materials engagements as the services are performed. On fixed-price engagements, we recognize revenues under the percentage of completion method except for fixed-price outsourcing contracts where we recognize revenues ratably over the applicable period. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, approximately 42% and 41%, respectively, of our total revenues were generated from fixed-price engagements.

      Our most significant cost is project personnel cost, which consists primarily of salaries, wages and benefits for our IT professionals. We strive to maintain our gross profit margin by controlling project costs and managing salaries and benefits relative to billing rates. We use a human resource management team to ensure that IT professionals are quickly placed on assignments to minimize nonbillable time and are placed on assignments that use their technical skills and allow for maximum billing rates.

      In an effort to sustain our growth and profitability, we have made and continue to make substantial investments in our infrastructure, including: (1) development centers in the United States and India; (2) system methodologies; and (3) internal systems.

      In April 2003, the Company announced that it would realign the organization. The realignment, which is substantially complete, aligns sales, subject matter expertise and delivery and provides a strong foundation for the future growth and profitability for the Company. As part of the realignment, the Company reduced headcount in the second quarter of 2003 by over 200 positions in North America or approximately 8.5% of domestic headcount. The reduction in headcount was split with 70% of the eliminated positions (billable and delivery employees) coming from cost of revenue with the remaining 30% coming from selling, general and administrative. These actions generated total severance expense of $2.5 million and we anticipate this action will generate an estimated fully loaded annual cost savings of approximately $23 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We regularly evaluate and discuss with our Audit Committee the accounting policies and estimates we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method, impairment assessments of goodwill and other long-lived assets, realization of deferred tax assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and litigation related contingencies. These estimates are based on historical experience, project management, and various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable given the particular facts and circumstances. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.

      The Securities and Exchange Commission has defined “critical accounting policies” as those that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies discussed below. We have other significant accounting policies, which also involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are integral to understanding our results of operations. For a complete discussion of all significant accounting policies, see Note 1 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2002 Form 10-K.

      The following is an overview discussion of our critical accounting policies.

      Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 for our time-and-materials and fixed price outsourcing contracts. For those service contracts which are billed on a time and materials basis, we recognize revenues as the services are performed. In our time and materials contracts our effort, measured by our time incurred, represents the contractual milestones or output measure which is the contractual earnings pattern. For our fixed price IT outsourcing and maintenance contracts, we recognize revenue ratably over the applicable outsourcing or maintenance period as the services are performed continuously over the contract period.

      For our contracts to design, develop or modify complex information systems based upon the client’s specifications, we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis in accordance with Statement of Position 81-1. The percentage of completion is determined by relating the actual cost of labor performed to date to the estimated total cost of labor for each contract. Estimates of total contract revenues and costs are continuously monitored during the term of the contract, and recorded revenues and costs are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Such revisions, which may result in increases or decreases to revenue and income, are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which they are first identified. If the estimate indicates a loss on a particular contract, a provision is made for the entire estimated loss without reference to the percentage of completion.

      Retainages, which are not material for any of the periods presented, are included in revenue earned in excess of billings in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue earned in excess of billings is primarily comprised of revenue recognized on certain contracts in excess of contractual billings on such contracts. Billings in excess of revenue earned are classified as deferred revenue.

      Computer Software. We perform research to develop software for various business applications. The costs of such research are charged to expense when incurred. When the technological feasibility of the product is established, subsequent costs are capitalized. Capitalized software costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis. Amortization is recorded on the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product, generally five years, commencing when such product is available. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross

12

Table of Contents

      Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

      Realization of deferred tax assets associated with the Company’s future deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income. On a quarterly basis, management assesses whether it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

Results of Operations

      Revenues. Revenues were $96.2 million and $94.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively and $192.8 million and $185.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in revenue in both periods was attributable to revenue generated from PDA Software Services, Inc., which was acquired on May 31, 2002.

      Gross Profit. Gross profit consists of revenues less cost of revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of salaries (including nonbillable and training time), benefits, travel and relocation for its professionals. In addition, cost of revenues includes depreciation and amortization, direct facility costs and contractual services. Gross profit decreased $2.3 million from the $25.4 million reported in the second quarter of 2002. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit was 24% in the second quarter of 2003 compared with 26.9% in the second quarter of 2002. Gross profit in the second quarter of 2003 was negatively impacted by severance of approximately $1.0 million related to the realignment of the organization previously discussed. In addition, two loss contracts also contributed to the deterioration of gross profit. A charge of approximately $.8 million was recorded relative to these contracts. Partially offsetting the deterioration in gross profit was a health care related refund related to prior periods of approximately $.4 million.

      Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $44.8 million compared with $49.7 million for the comparable period in 2002. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit was 23.2% and 26.8% for the six month periods June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition to the factors noted in the preceding paragraph which negatively impacted gross profit, gross profit was also negatively impacted by a $1.0 million charge recorded in the first quarter of 2003 related to a loss contract, as well as a decline in pricing period over period. This loss contract has numerous factors which must be managed through project end in order to achieve the level of loss recorded to date. The total loss recognized through June 30, 2003 is $2.1 million. It is possible that new information could require the Company to reassess the recorded loss reserve, ultimately resulting in the need to record an additional provision to the recorded reserve related to this contract. Additionally, gross margin in the six months ended June 30, 2002 benefited from one-time high margin sales of software licenses which improved gross profit by approximately $1.8 million.

      Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs associated with our direct selling and marketing efforts, human resources and recruiting departments, administrative and indirect facility costs. Selling, general and administrative costs were $22.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $25.3 million for the comparable period in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, selling, general and administrative expenses were $44.6 million and $49.5 million respectively. Included in 2003 amounts are severance costs of $1.5 million associated with the

13

Table of Contents

      In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 include higher provisions for doubtful accounts (approximately $.6 million), higher travel related expenses (approximately $.8 million) as well as higher levels of spending for sales and marketing costs (approximately $2.5 million).

      Other Income, Net. Other income, net represents principally interest earned on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The reduction in amounts in 2003 from comparable periods in 2002 is due to lower rates of return.

      Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2003 was 58.5% and 58.3%, respectively and includes a one-time adjustment of $.2 million related to previously reported amounts. The Company estimates that its effective tax rate for the remainder of 2003 will be approximately 45.1%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      As of June 30, 2003, we had cash and short-term investments totaling $103.0 million. The Company generally funds its operations and working capital needs through internally generated funds. Cash provided from operations was $7.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2003.

      The principal use of cash for investing activities during the six month period ended June 30, 2003 was for the purchase of investment securities available for sale and for the purchase of property and equipment.

      To facilitate future cash flow needs, we have an arrangement with a commercial bank where we may borrow an amount not to exceed $20.0 million with interest at the bank’s prime rate less .5%, or the LIBOR rate plus 1.2% at the borrower’s option. $15.0 million of the $20.0 million is available for standby letters of credit. As of June 30, 2003, we had $5.3 million of standby letters of credit outstanding as collateral for two performance bonds. Borrowings under this facility are short-term, payable on demand and are collateralized by all assets. During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, we did not have any balances outstanding under this arrangement.

      The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 14,000,000 shares of its outstanding common stock. During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, the Company repurchased 557,200 shares of its Common Stock at a total cost of $1.5 million. Since the inception of the program, the Company has repurchased approximately 11,182,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $139.6 million. All repurchases have been financed through the Company’s operations.

      Most of our revenues are billed in U.S. dollars. We recognize transaction gains and losses in the period of occurrence. Foreign currency fluctuations during the three month period ended June 30, 2003 did not have a material impact on income from operations as currency fluctuations on revenue denominated in a foreign currency were offset by currency fluctuations on expenses denominated in a foreign currency. There were no material operating trends or effects on liquidity as a result of fluctuations in the functional currency. We do not use derivatives to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations, nor do we speculate in foreign currency.

      Revenues, based on end customer bill rates, generated by our India and Asia operations, including development centers, from both direct services provided to clients in India and Asia as well as services provided to customers in the United States and Europe, accounted for 17.7% and 18.2% of our total revenues for the three month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

      Inflation did not have a material impact on our revenues or income from operations during the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

      In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. This statement requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of the commitment to an exit or disposal plan. This statement was effective for Covansys for any exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this statement will principally impact the ultimate timing of when activities are recorded as expense.

      In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34”. FIN 45 clarifies the requirements of FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, relating to the guarantor’s accounting for, and disclosure of, the issuance of certain types of guarantees. FIN 45 became effective on January 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued a final consensus on Issue 00-21: Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. Issue 00-21 provides guidance on how and when to recognize revenues on arrangements requiring delivery of more than one product or service. Issue 00-21 is effective prospectively for arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Companies may also elect to apply the provisions of Issue 00-21 to existing arrangements and record the income statement impact as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. We currently intend to adopt Issue 00-21 prospectively for contracts entered into after June 30, 2003. We are evaluating Issue 00-21 to determine its impact, if any, on our results of operations.

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure”. This statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock based compensation. We have adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148.

      In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 provides guidance on the identification of, and financial reporting for, entities over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights, which are referred to as variable-interest entities (“VIEs”). FIN 46 is effective for Covansys for the year ending December 31, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 will not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. This statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under FAS 133. The statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

      In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. This statement improves the accounting for certain financial instruments that, under previous guidance, issuers could account for as equity. The statement requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. This statement is effective for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on our financial position.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

      We are exposed to market risk for the effect of foreign currency fluctuations and interest rate changes. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk is set forth below and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Foreign Exchange Risk

      Most of our revenues are billed in U.S. dollars. We recognize transaction gains and losses in the period of occurrence. Foreign currency fluctuations in the three month periods and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 did not have a material impact on income from operations as currency fluctuations on revenue denominated in a foreign currency were offset by currency fluctuations on expenses denominated in a foreign currency. We do not generally use derivatives to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations, nor do we speculate in foreign currency.

Interest Rate Risk

      Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash and short-term investment portfolio, which was $103.0 million as of June 30, 2003. All of our short-term investments are designated as available-for-sale and accordingly, are presented at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. A portion of our short term investments are in mutual funds. Mutual funds may have their fair market value adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, and we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates.

Commitments, Contingencies and Potential Liability to Clients

      The Company is, from time to time, party to ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the Company’s business. After discussion with its legal counsel, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any existing matter will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

      In addition, many of the Company’s engagements involve projects that are critical to the operations of its clients’ businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. The Company attempts to contractually limit its liability for damages arising from errors, mistakes, omissions or negligent acts in rendering its services. The Company has undertaken engagements for which the Company guarantees its performance based upon defined client specifications on delivery dates. Certain engagements have required the Company to obtain a performance bond from a licensed surety, to guarantee performance, and to post the performance bond with the client. The Company intends to satisfy all of its performance obligations with its clients and does not anticipate defaulting on any of these performance bonds or letters of credit.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

      We maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that we are able to collect the information that is required to be disclosed in the reports we file with the SEC, and to process, summarize and disclose this information within the time period specified by the rules of the SEC. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing, maintaining and enhancing these procedures. They are also responsible, as required by the rules established by the SEC, for the evaluation of the effectiveness of these procedures.

      Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures which took place at the end of the period covering this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that these procedures are effective to ensure that we are able to collect, process and disclose the information we are required to disclose in the report we filed with the SEC within the required time period.

Internal Controls

      We maintain a system of internal controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that: transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; transactions are recorded as necessary to (1) permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, and (2) maintain accountability for assets. Access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization.

      Since the date of the most recent evaluation of our internal controls by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, there have been no significant changes in such controls or in other factors that could have significantly affected those controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

      During management’s evaluation of internal controls, certain deficiencies were identified including manually intensive processes and information flows, concentration of knowledge and the need to increase training of financial staff. Management is currently addressing these deficiencies through the implementation of a consolidation and financial reporting tool, standardization and automation of information flows, processes and procedures, and enhancing the skill sets of financial and operational staff through hiring and expanded training programs.
